Semua Bab My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!: Bab 1251 - Bab 1260

Lynette thought that was the end of her embarrassment, but the worst had yet to come. "Pick it up!" Serenity demanded. "You dropped it on the floor, so pick it up!"Lynette snapped, fueled with anger. "Why should I listen to you and pick it up?!"Lynette yelled at the staff, mad at their inaction. "Are you going to kick her out or not?! If not, I'll do it myself!" She wanted to grab Serenity, but someone stopped her before her hand even reached her. An ordinary-looking woman standing behind Serenity suddenly grabbed Lynette's elbow, restraining her effortlessly. "Madam, how should we handle this?" The female bodyguard asked Serenity respectfully, ignoring Lynette's scream of pain."Have her pick up the gown," Serenity ordered, her voice cold. Jackson had sent Eva to protect Serenity. Eva was a very skilled bodyguard, naturally. Otherwise, Serenity would not have been so reckless while pregnant, confronting Lynette here."Yes." Eva said to Lynette, "You heard what Mrs. Valor s

Jackson turned to Serenity, his eyes on her. "I'm afraid things will not end well for Lynette. What do you think? Would you help her again?"Serenity said flatly, "I won't.""Because of how she framed Peter?" Jackson asked. He seemed unconcerned about it, but his eyes were laser-focused on Serenity, searching her expression for something."Partially yes," Serenity admitted frankly. "I'm not a saint. I won't help someone who has repeatedly tried to hurt me, framing me and innocent people. Lynette will never be at ease with how she used my identity. She won't stop hurting me. I've thought of the consequences when I told Lucas the truth."Innocent?" Jackson snorted. "Do you really trust him? Aren't you a lawyer? Aren't you supposed to believe in evidence? All the evidence now points to Peter.""I trust him," Serenity said, her tone resolute. "Evidence can be superficial. Remember my case? If you believe in them too much, it may lead to another unjust, false, and wrongful conviction,

"Who is it? Who's trying to hurt me?!" Lynette barked in anger."Mr. Gomez has given you a lot of resources, and that has made many people jealous of you," Bailey said, stating the obvious. Besides, Lynette had offended a lot of people. She would have gotten into deep trouble without her connections with Prince Lucas.Bailey had utter contempt for Lynette's behavior. If not for Lucas, she would never work with someone like Lynette. Lynette only had average or below-average looks. She was terrible at acting and lacked emotional intelligence. Lynette was a shallow woman, always wanting others to flatter her. She would use Prince Lucas' influence to threaten those she hated whenever things went wrong.Lynette had finally gotten herself into serious trouble, and Bailey was insincere in helping Lynette. "Why don't you talk to Mr. Gomez? He'd help you with the news," Bailey said, brushing her off.Lynette could not share her struggles. She could not reach Lucas at all. Otherwise, she wou

Serenity rarely had morning sickness, but whenever she was afflicted, she would suffer from seemingly endless nausea that would never end until she purged everything.Serenity bumped into Liliana as she was leaving the washroom cubicle. She walked past her toward the sink to wash her hands.Liliana had been keeping a low profile ever since the news of her cheating and the video of her getting beaten up by an internet celebrity had spread online. Liliana rarely came to cause trouble with Serenity, but this time, her gaze made her feel uncomfortable. "Serenity, you were vomiting so badly. Is it morning sickness?" Liliana suddenly asked tentatively."Yes, and so what?" Serenity admitted it. She had no reason to hide her pregnancy. Besides, her pregnancy would be obvious. Her baby bump would start to change in no time, and by the trimester's end, she would have a rounded belly. Liliana was stunned by Serenity's reply. She did not expect her to admit it so frankly."What? Are you re

Her colleagues were speculating about Serenity's marriage when suddenly, the room fell into silence.Someone rich with the name Valor—the wealthiest man in Solaria was Jackson Valor! Everyone looked at each other curiously, seeing that same suspicion in each other's eyes."It can't be…" After a long silence, someone finally spoke. "Could it be... Jackson Valor?""Impossible!" Liliana immediately refuted, "Those men must be actors! Serenity hired them to make her story believable. She wants us to think she really got married. Is she really married to Jackson? If so, why would she have worked here? She has only been working for less than three months here and has gotten pregnant."A colleague could not help but disagree. "Actors? That seems unlikely." "Yeah. Wouldn't it be easier to find a man to act as her husband?" someone suggested.Her colleagues were no fools and realized how far-fetched Liliana's counter-argument was, naturally. Some of them walked to the window, staring out
